Understanding VRF-lite
Route limiting per VRF instance
In a multi-VRF network environment, it may be problematic if one VRF injects too many
routes and fills up the hardware forwarding table (FIB) on the device, which can affect other
VRFs as well as the global VRF. For more information see "Route Limits" on page 84
